YouTube Down?

YouTube appears to be having spastic fits this Monday. Pages are barely loading, errors are being thrown everywhere. I've confirmed via other online discussion boards that this is in fact happening for everybody.

Wonder what the issue is? Systemic failures such as this smell like an attack to me.

(Mods, move this around if needed)

ETA: The "down-ness" started about 10-15 minutes ago.

I just Googled "YouTube" with a filter of the last hour. First thing that came up.

According to the comments, it appears to be down for most people.

Edit: Link broke. Here's a shortened version.
goo.gl...



The site itself will usually come up, but videos won't play. And if I click on my History or something, I get an error and a white page full of code.


Appears to be working for me now.

At the risk of sounding arrogant, why are you asking ATS? Surely this would be better addressed to the support division of Youtube? Well, apart from the fact that Youtube works fine for me, at least. Maybe it's a conspiracy...?

How is this possible. You're from 2011 and speak in riddles.

If youtube goes down, all the evidence and facts ever provided to ATS go with it. We'd be dead in the water. How can you prove something if you can't embed the youtube video.

It is flabbergasting.

Have you been flabbering my gast? I can assure you he doesn't like that Sir and will react in a most unpredictable way! As for evidence, I never touched a thing!

I had problems earlier too, but it didn't last long at all.
